In this assignment your team will create a MATLAB program that will take inputs about the geometry of your drone design, some initial conditions and calculate the aerodynamic drag and dynamic thrust of your design. You will use this program to analyze your prototype you will make and fly later this semester. Refer back to your Week 58 slides as source material for the program and the sample run data set. Write a MATLAB code which does the following: Takes user input for the following parameters for your prototype(s): Vehicle: wing theoretical area, wing span, wing thickness, drone part wetted area (i.e. wetted area of the wing, fuselage, and tails separately), fuselage average diameter, fuselage overall length, average wing or tail thickness, average wing or tail chord length, drone weight, battery mass MAKE SURE ALL UNITS ARE CONSISTENT Conditions: Speed vector (1 20 m/s) Other provided constants may be hard-wired into the program as long as they are clearly identified in the comments Outputs the following: Table with the input parameters for fuselage overall length and drone total weight, wing theoretical area, wing span, and fuselage average diameter Plot of total drag and thrust for your design as a function of speed. Axes must be clearly labeled with units and plot must have a title. Maximum speed your prototype can fly (as calculated by the program) Endurance and the range your prototype can fly at that maximum speed In this assignment your team will create a MATLAB program that will take inputs about the geometry of your drone design, some initial conditions and calculate the aerodynamic drag and dynamic thrust of your design.
